...On November 25,
2016, Mr. Unench, a Mongolian herder from the Ulgai area of
Southern Mongolia’s Left Uzumchin Banner, killed four Chinese
named Wei Jianguo, Wei Jianqi (cousin of Wei Jianguo), Wei
Jianchen (brother of Wei Jianqi) and An Xiaoping after being
beaten by three of the four in a dispute over grazing land and
payment of sheep tending. According to the official Weixin news
release of the Tongliao Municipality Public Security Bureau,
Unench was arrested nine hours later in his home place of
eastern Southern Mongolia’s Horchin Left Wing Middle Banner. A
native of Yoliin-mod Township of Horchin Left Wing Middle
Banner, Unench was hired by the Wei’s, a Chinese family, as a
sheep tender in the Ulgai area. Although the details of the
dispute are unavailable, information from different sources
confirm that Unench had been blamed and abused by the Wei’s for
not feeding the sheep sufficiently to accumulate fat. Expanding

...Since
November 5, 2016, Mongolian parents from eastern
Southern (Inner) Mongolia’s Ulaanhad Municipality (“chifeng
shi” in Chinese) have launched a series of protests
against the educational authorities for appointing
Chinese principals to the only two Mongolian
kindergartens allowed to teach in Mongolian.
Outraged by the newly appointed Chinese principals’
ban of the Mongolian language in the kindergartens,
Mongolian parents collected signatures and published
open letters via Chinese social media. In the latest
development, local authorities failed to address the
Mongolian parents’ demands, sparking further
protests and inviting strong criticism of the
Chinese authorities’ ethnic policy in Southern
Mongolia. According to the earliest appeal from the
Mongolian parents, “the Ulaanhad Municipality
Educational Bureau head Mr. Han Lizhong, ignoring
relevant laws and regulations, arbitrarily appointed
his close associate Ms. Dai Xiaoli, a Chinese

To:Supreme People’s Court
of the People’s Republic of
China:
I, Hada, was arrested by the
Division No.1 of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous
Region Public Security Bureau for nationality
question on December 10, 1995. I was sentenced to 15
years in jail in 1996 by the Hohhot Municipality
Intermediate People’s Court on charges of splitting
the country and engaging in espionage. My appeal to
the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Higher People’s
Court was rejected. During my imprisonment, I
appealed multiple times through my family members.
In 2008, I appealed myself in writing, demanding
your court to restore my freedom by providing a
large amount of evidence to prove that the two
charges against me were groundless. Six years have
passed. Yet, your court still has not reheard this
unfair trial. Here I made available all relevant
documents including my previous appeals, court
decisions and verdicts before I start this appeal. I
have also written the major events during the past
18 years into this appeal. I urge your court to
carry out a rehearing and rehabilitation as to bring
those officials involved
